Explanation:
In today Daily Meditation, day 25 of 31 days of the month of September we will study and meditate on the scriptures relating to our topic on ‘The glory of God’- When the glory is departed – Ichabod.
Today will continue our act of meditation on the glory of God. Our God is a God of glory so he makes the glory to rise upon you. The glory of God can come and can depart under certain circumstances. This is the story in the 1st Book of Samuel chapter 4, when the Ark of the covenant of the Lord was brought from Shiloh and the Philistines came to fight against Israel and the ark of God was captured and the two sons of Eli died. Eli heard the news and fell off the seat backward and died. Glory be to God. In the presence of the glory of God or His fullness there is manifestation of miracles, signs and wonders is to show the glory of God.
Then she named the child Ichabod,[i] saying, “The glory has departed from Israel!” because the ark of God had been captured and because of her father-in-law and her husband. 22 And she said, “The glory has departed from Israel, for the ark of God has been captured (1 Samuel 4:21-22).
Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, But to Your name give glory, Because of Your mercy, Because of Your truth (Psalm 115:1).
But You, O Lord, are a shield for me, My glory and the One who lifts up my head (Psalm 3:3).
May you receive the portion of His inheritance in your life in the name of Jesus Christ.
Further Scriptures:
The sight of the glory of the Lord was like a consuming fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel (Exodus 24:17).
Let us pray today: May you experience the fullness of God that brings supernatural manifestation of wisdom, healings, deliverance, signs and wonders in your life, marriage, finance, business, and family in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Glory be to God!
